    Hi all,
    There is suddenly a 10-ishpx white space above my site. I've used Chrome Dev tools and looked through the forum and I can't seem to figure out why this is happening or how to fix it.

    Can anyone point me in the right direction?

    Thank you!
    Kirsten

    Not sure why the top space is there. The white color is coming from the body background color. I don't see any elements, padding, or margins that are pushing the header down. I was able to fix it in my local environment by adding top: -20px to .front-page-1. You have inline CSS that overrides the style sheet. It looks like you are using the WordPress CSS customizer to override the theme styles. Add the top: -20px to these inline styles.
